L. Frank Baum Quotes
Dorothy Lived In The Midst Of The Great Kansas Prairies, With Uncle Henry, Who Was A Farmer, And Aunt Em, Who Was The Farmer's Wife. Their House Was Small, For The Lumber To Build It Had To Be Carried By Wagon Many Miles. There Were Four Walls, A Floor And A Roof, Which Made One Room; And This Room Contained A Rusty Looking Cookstove, A Cupboard For The Dishes, A Table, Three Or Four Chairs, And The Beds. Uncle Henry And Aunt Em Had A Big Bed In One Corner, And Dorothy A Little Bed In Another Corner. There Was No Garret At All, And No Cellar - Except A Small Hole Dug In The Ground, Called A Cyclone Cellar, Where The Family Could Go In Case One Of Those Great Whirlwinds Arose, Mighty Enough To Crush Any Building In Its Path. It Was Reached By A Trap Door In The Middle Of The Floor, From Which A Ladder Led Down Into The Small, Dark Hole.
